We will move to Chromium 37 when it is officially released. We don't want to build Slimjet on dev build or beta build of Chromium. The dev build might have some exciting features but has more bugs than you would expect.

We are currently moving Slimjet to Chromium 36 and it should be ready in about a week's time if everything goes smoothly.

You are right. It's available in Chromium 35 as an experimental feature. Just go to chrome://flags to enable it.
I checked the difference with my eyes. It is not very noticeable to begin.

With that said, not everyone likes blurry anti-aliased text rendering. I, for one, hate PDF reader for its blurry text rendering. If Google somehow forces directwrite on chrome users, we will definitely add an option so that users can make their own choice.

Hi,

I use this option as an experimental feature since few days. It seems to work flawlessly.
